Mind tell us more why you’re avoiding glass?
*
Perhaps glass would degrade under display fingerprint performance, maybe? Planning to get one as well since mine got a few scratches.

Btw, still remember a bro here shared that he found his POCO screen lose to his IPSE for the weird color shift?

I theoreticize that it’s due to the default plastic screen protector.
*
Yeah I recall some reported plastic screen protector may cause color shift.

prefer non-glass type more to do with keeping weight down... hahaha
*
Ahahahaha ok. Thought it was because of fingerprint reliability.

Just received my non-pro K30. Anyone has the instruction for non tech-savvy guy on how to flash to EU ROM?

Whatever it is make sure you proceed with Mi unlock tool first cause u need to wait 7 days to get permission from xiaomi server to unlock bootloader.

Nice, bro thumbup.gif

Between this Poco F2 Pro and the Mi 10, I think Xiaomi MY must have moved thousands of phones in the past two weeks!
*
Xiaomi must have heard your complaint earlier laugh.gif

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Aug 17 2020, 09:04 PM)
HaHa! Probably.

This time I am very satisfied, it is very stable, so far seems no bugs. Great job Xiaomi.

Since purchase already get two updates, if the security patches update continue every month, then Xiaomi is very good on update support, let see how coming month.

Seems like they have started to picking up the pace thumbup.gif

yes can.. by simply dial *#*#4636#*#* then select LTE Only. but make sure you got VoLTE enabled first so you can receive incoming call. I'm using Digi and today many others can't make call but I can with VozLte
*
This is why I'm calling maxis maxsh!t... Already promoted 5g on their website but still no volte or vowifi to date. Even celcom got it recently bangwall.gif

Btw, just wondering, does VoWifi work too on f2 pro + digi?

Hi all owners,

Just wanna confirm, ultra wide angle camera no night mode?

Cos I was playing around with my friend's Poco and it seems like doesn't have.
*
No. Stock camera app doesn't support night mode on ultra-wide lens.

Your friend will need gcam for that. And for 4k 60fps with EIS stabilisation as well.

Btw, my tempered glass from China by Shopee had reached, fitted nicely even with case (stock case probably can't as it has a deeper grip into screen at corners).

Also, fingerprint reader working just fine too.

Additionally, no more weird color shift from the stock plastic screen protector film. They should really consider shipping their phones with TG pre-applied right from the box, I doubt that will cost them more than few pennies. Sony used to do that if I've not mistaken.

Though I don’t recommend the camera lens protector, don’t feel necessary + look kind of flimsy, more like plastic than glass, afraid will compromise the camera quality.

Thanks for the link. I guess it's time to take out the stock sp on my phone 😅. The micro scratches are not so micro anymore lol

on MIUI 12 anyone has this bug where the popup word stays too long?
example words like:

"You do not have any app to run this software"

that small word goes away in like 2 mins instead of 3 seconds..

Damn that's quite annoying. Fortunately, I haven't encountered such bug... yet...

Hahaha, the truth hurts laugh.gif

Anyways, with the JRE video out yesterday, Samsung will have some very serious questions to ask themselves for their next flagship. Going down the Exynos/SD route with the same pricing again will eventually cause even their most loyal fans in the Exynos regions to give up biggrin.gif
I doubt Samsung will go the Mediatek route since they have their own Exynos. Perhaps we’ll see them use the 990 in the A series next year?

As for Poco, I think we will see the Dim 1000 SOC in one of their global phones really soon - hopefully! If it comes at a good price with that performance in the video you shared, I think it’ll be a good buy!

But the Poco strategy is a bit confusing now with the F and X series - the F is suppose to be the “flagship killer” and the X is midrange? That won’t work if the X is priced around RM1500 coz that’s too near the F series price, right?

Oh, and they also have a M series? biggrin.gif

A lot of long time fans will rage quit... Like us maybe tongue.gif
But this is nothing much to samseng fags 😆

Mediatek flagship chipset looks promising. But I hope they do something about being less-friendly to developers. But I totally I agree with you, given at the current estimated price, those dimensity phones are no doubt will be a good buy... Wonder if qualcomm will bat an eye with their apple sammy price-increase-every-year approach.

Yup, just throw in a free TV and all is forgiven laugh.gif

Ya, if there is a criticism of the newer MediaTek chipsets is that it is still not friendly to developers. Hopefully that will change with enough wide spread adoption in the future so that Android makers can have more options and Qualcomm will have to tone down their Apple Sammy approach like you said, haha..
*
Samsung TV is just as tempting. Damn sammy they are very smart when it comes to this kind of things. Haih.
